Migrate from AIOSEO to Genesis 1.3 SEO options
 

Hello,

I'm planning to uninstall All In One SEO Pack plugin and use the built-in SEO options from Genesis. As I've readed in the forums, Genesis won't pick up the AIOSEO settings for posts and pages automatically.

So, which are the possibilities?
1.- Doing manually: I think this is affordable only for very small sites.
2.- Doingautomatically: I've readed that you were planning the release of a plugin to get the job done.

I've investigated a bit in how AIOSEOP store the metatags for the post and pages, and I was wondering if there is an easy way to migrate updating the DDBB. What I've found is that all this settings are in the wp_postmeta table, and both AIOSEOP and Genesis do it in a similar way:

- Title: the meta keys are "_aioseop_title" and "_genesis_title"
- Description: the meta keys are "_aioseop_description" and "_genesis_description"
- Keywords: the meta keys are "_aioseop_keywords" and "_genesis_keywords"

So, I'm wondering if a simple update of this fields replacing from the ones starting with "_aioseop_" to the others starting with "_genesis_" will do the trick.

Am I right? Is this the only things we have to have in consideration to migrate from one system to the other, or we have to take care of anything more? Will Genesis recognize the settings doing this simple table updates?

Regards.

If you can hold off a few days - Nathan should be finishing up a plugin that will actually change your AIOSEO table values to that of Genesis, so all you'd need to do is click a button and all will work.

But will the plugin do more than this simple updates? If won't, I cannot wait....:-)
It the answer is yes...I'll do
